Press Release :
First Word is back with two nuggets of kidkanevil goodness for your record-box, dropping one of the essential singles of the year.

It kicks off with the unstoppable 'Black Bug' featuring Germany's electro soul brother number one Taprikk Sweezee. He weighs in with a jaw-dropping vocal performance – think Prince meets Jamie Liddell (in Berlin) and you're in the right ballpark. This is coupled with one of the kid's biggest club beats yet – watch this one destroy the dancefloor!

On the flip Sweden's Kissey Asplund is paired with highly-acclaimed Californian emcee Blu (doing his finest Slick Rick English accent!) on the the sultry 'When I Dig'. With an easy, summer vibe, and great vocals from two of the scene's most exciting new talents, this is another track that'll have the clubs bouncing.

"Dope! Very Heavy indeed!" - DJ Vadim (Ninja Tune, BBE)
"Both songs are totally amazing... full club and podcast support on theses and a trail of drool from here to leeds in anticipation on the 2nd album..." - Diesler (Tru Thoughts, Freestyle)
"Big ! played yesterday on my MOS radio show..." - James Mountain (Ninja Tune)
